Watermark LIC,

27-19 44th Drive, Queens, NY 11101

"Toured this building in Spring, 2021. The apartment I saw seemed nice with a nest thermostat and a walk in closet, but also felt slightly small for the price. The gym is at the top of the building with great views, but they may charge an amenity fee for it at some point if they don't already. I strongly considered living here, but the building allows smoking within units (maybe you can't smell it but I wouldn't want to be trapped in a lease breathing my neighbor's smoke) and there is construction across the street (not sure if you can hear it or not, though), so it wasn't quite worth it in my case. The leasing staff was very friendly and helpful."

"One of the better apartment buildings I've lived in. The front desk staff are helpful and the management office is reasonably responsive. The building is conveniently located near the Court Square subway station, which provides quick access to Manhattan, Brooklyn, and LGA/JFK airports."

"Great community, gorgeous gym, rooftop, and lounge! Love everything about living here. The staff is so friendly, they have an excellent team and make it feel like home. Right across from Book Culture. I love the location. Tucked in a quiet nook of LIC. Home sweet home!"

"The WATERMARK boutique apartment complex in LIC is a recently renovated 27 tower building. Situated in a trendy booming area of New York the Apts comprise a young ,fun ,Covid Safe community. The many features: state of the art gym ,pet friendly , well maintained newly appointed units offer a Covid -tolerant lifestyle. I recently moved there and am very happy with my unit which looks out upon a Manhattan urban skyline. If you have to stay cooped up in quarantine do it here. There’s lots of great take out eateries in the area . It’s a fun friendly environment!!!"

"UPDATE (12/2018): Updating my review from 2 to 4 stars for now. A lot of maintenance issues have been worked out and the garage is now available. Only rarely do I still get cigarette smoke in my apartment; I guess some tenants must have moved out or stopped smoking (good - and hope it stays that way). Only thing that still annoys me is how long it sometimes takes for the water to get hot. Pros: Very nice spacious and modern apartments. Great location near subway. Super-quiet. Secure. Friendly and helpful doormen. Cons: On-site management not very responsive. Not a smoke-free community - residents do smoke IN their apartments (and the cigarette smoke as well as food odors come into the other apartments through vents). Lots of maintenance issues with water/electricity/AC (regular water shutoffs and leaks; water pressure is ridiculous). Leasing office a small room in the basement."
